MeSH headings : Alkenes / chemistry; Alkenes / metabolism; Biocatalysis; Decarboxylation; Molecular Structure; Nonheme Iron Proteins / metabolism
TL;DR: Experimental observations imply that a pathway involving an initial C-H activation followed by a benzylic carbocation species or by electron transfer coupled β-scission is likely utilized to complete C═C bond formation. (via Semantic Scholar)

2018 journal article

Mechanistic Investigation of Oxidative Decarboxylation Catalyzed by Two Iron(II)- and 2-Oxoglutarate-Dependent Enzymes

BIOCHEMISTRY, 57(12), 1838–1841.

By: J. Huang n, Y. Tang *, C. Yu n, D. Sanyal n, X. Jia  n, X. Liu *, Y. Guo *, W. Chang n 

Contributors: J. Huang n, Y. Tang *, C. Yu n, D. Sanyal n, X. Jia  n, X. Liu *, Y. Guo *, W. Chang n 

MeSH headings : Carboxy-Lyases / chemistry; Catalysis; Iron / chemistry; Ketoglutaric Acids / chemistry
TL;DR: It is proposed that both IsnB and AmbI3 initiate stereoselective olefination via a benzylic C-H bond activation by an Fe(IV)-oxo intermediate, and the reaction likely proceeds through a radical- or carbocation-induced decarboxylation to complete C═C bond installation. (via Semantic Scholar)
